I recently saw this on someone's Pinterest page and found it so fitting to how I am feeling these days!
My favorite time of the day or I should say night in this case, is right after my girls have fallen asleep. Not because they are sleeping and I can finally have some peace and quiet. But because it's the time of day when everything seems right in the world. They both look so peaceful and perfect and it gives me hope that maybe I'm not screwing things up and setting up witty remarks in their futures memoirs! I go in and just sit for a few moments reflecting on the day and silently promising to be a better mom the next day. I vow to have more patience, care less about the clean state of our house or lack thereof. I promise to play more, to yell less and to speak with love.
I'm so grateful for their naturally forgiving hearts and the little kisses and random hugs they give throughout the day no matter how many meltdowns we've all had. When I say "WE" that includes me!
I'm grateful that they love me despite my millions of imperfections and daily screw ups.
